X input methods for utf-8?

[Bram Moolenaar <Bram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Vim now supports UTF-8 character encoding internally.  One problem I ran into
is that there doesn't seem to be any X input method for UTF-8 in Japan.
Someone suggested to me that an existing euc-jp input method should be used
and then convert the characters to UTF-8.  That would require the use of
iconv().

Before I implement the conversion, is there a better solution?  If there is a
XIM for UTF-8, usable in Japan, where can it be found?
